Description

Amoxsan is a brand name for an antibiotic, called co-amoxiclav, that is used to treat a wide range
of conditions, from bronchitis to Lyme disease. It is one of the most commonly prescribed antibiotics
for children, frequently dispensed for ear infections.

The drug is a combination of two active ingredients: amoxicillin and clavulanic acid. Together, the
drugs fight bacteria that would ordinarily be resistant to amoxicillin alone.

Dosage

Amoxsan may be taken without regard to meals; however, absorption of clavulanate potassium is
enhanced when Amoxsan is administered at the start of a meal. To minimize the potential for
gastrointestinal intolerance, Amoxsan should be taken at the start of a meal.

The usual adult dose is one 500-mg tablet of Amoxsan every 12 hours or one 250-mg tablet of
Amoxsan every 8 hours. For more severe infections and infections of the respiratory tract, the dose
should be one 875-mg tablet of Amoxsan every 12 hours or one 500-mg tablet of Amoxsan every 8 hours.
Adults who have difficulty swallowing may be given the 125 mg/5 mL or 250 mg/5 mL suspension in place of
the 500-mg tablet. The 200 mg/5 mL suspension or the 400 mg/5 mL suspension may be used in place of the
875-mg tablet.

Two 250-mg tablets of Amoxsan should not be substituted for one 500-mg tablet of Amoxsan. Since
both the 250-mg and 500-mg tablets of Amoxsan contain the same amount of clavulanic acid (125 mg, as
the potassium salt), two 250-mg tablets are not equivalent to one 500-mg tablet of Amoxsan.

The 250-mg tablet of Amoxsan and the 250-mg chewable tablet should not be substituted for each
other, as they are not interchangeable. The 250-mg tablet of Amoxsan and the 250-mg chewable tablet do
not contain the same amount of clavulanic acid (as the potassium salt). The 250-mg tablet of Amoxsan
contains 125 mg of clavulanic acid, whereas the 250-mg chewable tablet contains 62.5 mg of clavulanic
acid.

Overdose

If you take too much this medication, call your healthcare provider or local Poison Control Center, or
seek emergency medical attention right away.

If this medication is administered by a healthcare provider in a medical setting, it is unlikely that
an overdose will occur. However, if overdose is suspected, seek emergency medical attention.

Storage

Store between 20 and 25 degrees C (68 and 77 degrees F) away from moisture and heat. Keep bottle closed tightly. Throw away any unused medicine after the expiration date. Keep out of the reach of children.

Side effect occurrence does not only depend on medication you are taking, but also on your
overall health and other factors.

Contraindications

Serious and occasionally fatal hypersensitivity (anaphylactic) reactions have been reported in
patients receiving beta-lactam antibacterials, including Amoxsan. These reactions are more likely to
occur in individuals with a history of penicillin hypersensitivity and/or a history of sensitivity to
multiple allergens. Before initiating therapy with Amoxsan, careful inquiry should be made regarding
previous hypersensitivity reactions to penicillins, cephalosporins, or other allergens. If an allergic
reaction occurs, Amoxsan should be discontinued and appropriate therapy instituted.

In patients presenting with a pelvic mass and an IUD in the uterine cavity, the diagnosis of actinomycosis should be seriously considered. A detailed workup, including a CT scan, endometrial curettage and biopsies where possible, should be performed before surgery. Once diagnosis has been confirmed, conservative medical treatment should be attempted before considering laparotomy, to reduce the risk of complications. Despite successful treatment with antibiotics, long-term sequelae such as hydronephrosis and renal atrophy are possible in cases of extended pelvic actinomycosis.

There were 82 patients (57 bacteremic and 25 non-bacteremic). In seven non-bacteremic cases, another etiology was detected, i.e., Legionella (n=1) and Chlamydia pneumoniae (n=6). Bacteremic patients were significantly younger (p=<0.001), more likely to have liver disease (p=0.028), current smokers (p=0.024), alcohol and intravenous drug abusers (p=0.014 and p<0.001, respectively), and infected with HIV (p<0.001). Non-bacteremic patients were more likely to have congestive heart failure (p=0.004), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (p=0.033) and to be former smokers (p=0.004). Bacteremic cases needed more prolonged intravenous antibiotic treatment (6 days vs. 4.5 days; p=0.006) than non-bacteremic cases and their length of stay was also longer.

Pregnant women with pyelonephritis received IEAT in a small but significant number of cases. Amoxicillin-clavulante and cephalosporines were adequate in most cases. More studies are needed to define the clinical impact of IEAT on prognosis.

The predominant pathogen recovered from children with AOM recently treated with amoxicillin was S. pneumoniae (59%) rather than beta-lactamase-producing organisms (24%). H. influenzae was the predominant (51%) pathogen, rather than PNSP (27%), recovered from children recently treated with AMC.

For a 13-year period (1978 through 1990), oxacillin-resistant (MIC, greater than 4 micrograms/ml) Staphylococcus aureus (ORSA) strains were collected from Clinical Center (National Institutes of Health) patients and patients from five other U.S. hospitals. From Clinical Center patients, 251 of 253 isolates (99%) were bacteriophage typed as phage group III. Five other hospitals contributed 203 ORSA strains, of which 188 (93%) were group III. The group III ORSA strains predominantly included a characteristic core pattern of phages, 7/47/53/54/75/77. For the low-level (borderline) oxacillin-resistant strains (MIC, 2 to 4 micrograms/ml), amoxicillin-clavulanic acid combination (Augmentin) testing disclosed 62 hyper-beta-lactamase producers, of which 59 (95%) were of a separate, distinct S. aureus strain, with the phage pattern 92/94/96/292/D-11 (group V). Thus, ORSA and hyper-beta-lactamase producing S. aureus are distinct epidemic strains.

Amoxicillin-clavulanate is the most common drug involved in drug-induced liver injury and the single most frequently prescribed product leading to hospitalization for drug-induced liver disease in Spain. The liver damage most frequently associated with amoxicillin-clavulanate is cholestasic type. The latency period between first intake and onset of symptoms is 3-4 weeks on average. A 76-year-old man developed fever, pruritus, and jaundice 3 weeks after having completed treatment with amoxicillin-clavulanate. Liver function tests showed cholestasic hepatitis (up to 50.75 mg/dL of total serum bilirubin level). The ultrasound-guided liver biopsy revealed severe canalicular cholestasis and portal and lobular eosinophilic infiltrates. Prednisone and ursodeoxycholic acid therapy were then prescribed. The patient became symptom-free with normal liver function tests. Amoxicillin-clavulanate can cause hepatocellular, cholestasic, or mixed liver injury. The presence of eosinophilic infiltrates in the liver biopsy and the clinical signs of hypersensitivity in some of the cholestasic cases suggest a pathophysiological immunoallergic mechanism. For this reason, corticosteroid treatment should be considered for patients with severe cholestasic liver injury.

The efficacy and safety of sequential parenteral-oral Augmentin (amoxicillin plus clavulanic acid) therapy was evaluated in an open study with 249 adult patients in 18 Swiss hospitals. The patients were suffering from infections of the respiratory tract, skin and/or soft tissues, urinary tract, or female pelvic organs, and 36 had bacteraemia. One quarter of the patients treated were in a poor Is Ethambutol A Drug or critical condition. The overall bacteriological success rate was 94.1%. Augmentin achieved a satisfactory clinical response (cure or improvement) in 96.7% of the infections treated, with the following response rates for the five major categories of infection: respiratory tract infections 97.0%, urinary tract infections 97.8%, pelvic inflammatory disease 100%, septicaemia 91.4% and skin and soft tissue infections 95.7%. The observed adverse drug events include slight to moderate diarrhoea in 3.6% of the patients and skin reactions in 4.8%. It is concluded that Augmentin was an effective and safe treatment in this group of hospitalized patients.

A total of 330 children (average age 13.1 months) with AOM were studied. At TOC, 256 children had clinical cure, 69 had clinical failure, and 5 were lost to follow-up. High-dose amoxicillin/clavulanic acid-treated children had a better cure rate (86.5%) than cefdinir-treated patients (71.0%; p = 0.001). Cefdinir was correlated with less frequent cure outcomes as children increased in age between 6 and 24 months. The odds ratios for clinical cure per increasing month of age estimated from a logistic regression model for amoxicillin/clavulanic acid high dose and cefdinir treatment groups was 0.992 (95% CI 0.932, 1.056), p > 0.05 and 0.932 (95% CI 0.881, 0.986), p = 0.01. The differences in the odds ratios are significant at p Cipro 500 Mg Treatment and decreasing clinical cure rates as children increased in age for cefdinir.

Retropharingeal abscess is a potentially lethal but infrequent infection of the retropharyngeal space, thanks to the use of antibiotics. Caused by a suppurative lymphadenitis secondary to a locoregional infection of the head and neck, it is the most frequent abscess in Paediatric age. It must be present in our differential diagnosis when facing a torpid development of head and neck infectious processes accompanied by adenitis. A cervical lateral Tetrex 250 Mg X-Ray should be done without delay and in case of doubt, a CAT--scan is mandatory. We protocolise its diagnosis and treatment in order to avoid its serious complications.
